Multiple hypothesis testing often involves composite nulls, i.e., nulls that are associated with two or more distributions. In many cases, it is reasonable to assume that there is a prior distribution on the distributions despite it is…

We propose sufficient conditions and computationally efficient procedures for false discovery rate control in multiple testing when the $p$-values are related by a known \emph{dependency graph} -- meaning that we assume independence of…

In a one-way analysis-of-variance (ANOVA) model, the number of all pairwise comparisons can be large even when there are only a moderate number of groups. Motivated by this, we consider a regime with a growing number of groups, and prove…
